About This Book

A practical handbook for party speakers and organizers that describes creating a volunteer speakers bureau and training school, forming and strengthening local clubs, and deploying volunteers for continuous grassroots propaganda. It presents concise approaches to speechcraft and campaigning, methods for converting popular support into local victories, and tactics for exposing opponents' broken promises. The text warns against internal corruption and infiltration by wealthy interests, urging vigilance in selecting leaders and maintaining party purity, and combines organizational plans with strategic advice intended to keep activists focused on steady, disciplined work rather than ad hoc or leader-centered efforts.
